heads

this really has nothing to do with 4 wheeling but i have used this site for post and have found it extremely helpfull, but anyways i wanted to know what you all think that the best non-aluminuim heads would be be for a small block manufactured by chevorlet i am building a stock car to compete in a small series around me and the rules are very strict if anyone has any ideas or thoughts please post.here is a link to the rules. Rule Book

Go get your self some heads off an early 90's TBI Chevy truck. They're damn near the same as Vortec heads, then you can have them redrilled for the old style manifold. According to their rules, this is (almost)legal.

ok well i race around in circles also /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif ive had very good luck with 305 ho heads...casting 601 or 416..58cc 182 intake 150 exaust valves.....this head with a flat top makes great compression...some things to remember though when runninng the small heads....dont over carb it and done over cam it....they seem to make good power up to around 6000 but past that they really drop off....so gear the car accordingly..and cam it for the gears and you will be fast....we run a 1/4 mile asphalt here....turn the motor about 5700-6000..and use no bigger than a 280 duration cam solid lifters....and we have to run cast intake and exaust....ive had the best power with a 600 vacume holley with the softest secondary spring....on that engine combo....hope this helps

that head look like what you are looking for.i have 76 corvette heads on my truck so it has the 2.02 inch intake valve.i think this is too much for a truck because it now has good top end but less low end torque.but i dont think this truck will ever pull more than a 20 second quarter miile /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gifand i dont really get much over 3000 rpm to really let the 2.02's really do what they were intended to do.
